NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Barbara Corcoran, nine-season Shark on ABC’s “Shark Tank,” real estate
mogul, author and investor; and iHeartMedia, the leading media company
in America with a greater reach in the U.S. than any other media outlet,
announced today the launch of a new original podcast, Business
Unusual With Barbara Corcoranon iHeartRadio,
the free all-in-one digital music, podcast, on demand and live streaming
radio service.

Corcoran and iHeartMedia will co-produce Business
Unusual with Barbara Corcoran, which will draw
on Corcoran’s 30+ years of business expertise, life lessons and Shark
Tank anecdotes. Each episode of the weekly podcast is created with
busy, on-the-go listeners in mind featuring Corcoran’s expert advice
packed into snackable, 5-minute long episodes. iHeartRadio will promote
the podcast by airing audio vignettes from the show across iHeartMedia’s
broadcast radio stations, exposing the content to more than a quarter of
a billion monthly listeners across the country, as well as on
iHeartRadio.

“A lot of people have helped me out in life, offering sage advice, which
I’ve made my own, improved upon, or taken advantage of,” said Corcoran,
“With this new podcast, I can pay it forward beyond the pages of a book
or a few minutes on TV. Other than writing a love letter, it’s the most
intimate way to communicate – just me talking openly with you. It’s an
opportunity to share what I know best.”

“Barbara Corcoran is a personality like none other. Her experience as a
real estate mogul and business investor, along with her amazing sense of
humor and life stories, will make her tips, stories and advice perfect
for iHeartRadio’s digital and broadcast listeners nationwide,” said
Chris Peterson, Senior Vice President of Podcasting for iHeartMedia, “Business
Unusualcovers a variety of helpful topics for
entrepreneurs, ranging from young professionals and small business
owners to executives and investors, to succeed in their business – all
with a twist that only Barbara could offer.”

In 1973, Corcoran founded The Corcoran Group – the residential real
estate brokerage she built from scratch. Operating from her gut and
brilliantly marketing her apartments is what made Corcoran a huge
success. Twenty years later, she sold The Corcoran Group for $66MM.

Today, Barbara is an author, motivational speaker, and reality TV star
on ABC’s three-time Emmy award winning show SharkTank.
Nine seasons later, Corcoran is one of the show’s most beloved Sharks –
an experience she chronicled in her best-selling book Shark Tales:
How I Turned $1000 Into a Billion Dollar Business. This book was the
inspiration for what is now Business Unusual.
